HELLO

I'm Matthew Marino, a design strategist living in Paris, France

I'm a founding partner of User Studio, France's first service innovation consultancy, based in Paris. We use design tools, methods, and thinking to help organizations create new services. We also specialise in understanding how digital technologies affect users' lifestyles and behavior.

As an American who grew up in France, I'm interested in using my understanding of both cultures to bring an Anglo-Saxon design approach and the field of "service design" to the French market. I mainly focus on how user-centered innovation processes can improve business strategy and stimulate social innovation.
